Abstract

Given the rise of community policing, crime prevention and control strategies have become similar across different jurisdictions. However, in Nigeria, effective community policing has yet to be realized due to the absence of a comprehensive legal and policy framework. This study examines the legal and policy mechanisms necessary to institutionalize community policing as a tool for reducing crime in Nigeria, comparing them with best practices from other countries and global standards. It addresses key issues such as an ineffective policing system, mistrust between the police and the public, inadequate legal structures, and inconsistent policy directives. The study proposes a structured legal and policy framework to strengthen community policing and enhance public safety. Employing a doctrinal research approach, the study critically analyzes relevant laws, policies, and international best practices, supplemented by empirical data from selected Nigerian communities. It also offers a comparative evaluation of countries with varying levels of community policing success, drawing valuable insights. The research identifies significant gaps in legal partnerships and coordination, as well as diminished community ownership resulting from distrust and lack of transparency. Consequently, establishing a strong legal and policy foundation is crucial for formalizing and operationalizing community policing in Nigeria. The study recommends enacting a comprehensive Community Policing Act, enhancing stakeholder capacity, and fostering civic engagement to build mutual trust and cooperation between law enforcement agencies and local communities.

Abstract

Mobile health (mHealth), which comprises mobile health applications, telemedicine, SMS-based treatments, and wearable health monitors, has the power to change healthcare delivery, but at the same-time, it is going through a rapid developmental phase that regulators cannot keep up with. This is considered a necessity in balancing the Integration of mHealth technology innovation through enhanced laws within East Africa. It is in view of this that this examines the legal and public health framework in integrating mHealth technology in enhancing the healthcare system within East Africa. The study adopts a doctrinal and systematic analytical method of study directed by the PRISMA framework, allowing thorough legal analysis while at the same time guaranteeing a transparent, stringent, and comprehensive review of related literature. The study found that fragmentation of laws, lack of centralized public health and data governance, unequal access to mHealth services, and constraints on innovation, weakens the integration and regulation of mHealth. Hence, the study recommends and concludes that for effective integration of mHealth in enhancing the public health care system, the research insists on a unified legal system that states unambiguously which data protection benchmarks apply, what the liability conditions are, what the integration of different systems and regulations requirements is, and how to coordinate among different countries' regulators. Besides that, it suggests measures for strengthening the capacity of the targeted groups, such as: medical professionals, trainees, users’ digital literacy campaigns, and local mHealth technology developers’ institutions’ support.

Abstract

Nigeria continues to prioritise military intervention as the principal response to terrorism; however, persistent violence indicates that structural socio-economic inequalities, unemployment, and regional marginalisation sustain conditions conducive to radicalisation. In contrast, the United Kingdom integrates economic justice within its legal and policy framework, thereby complementing security measures with socio-economic regulation. This study analyses the role of economic justice as a lawful and sustainable counter-terrorism strategy through a comparative examination of the United Kingdom and Nigeria. This research aims to evaluate the legal basis for implementing economic justice measures in counterterrorism and to assess their relevance for long-term peacebuilding in Nigeria. The study employs a doctrinal research method, systematically examining legislation, public policy instruments, and scholarly works using the PRISMA framework to ensure transparent and rigorous source selection. The findings demonstrate that, first, the United Kingdom establishes a normative and institutional framework that links welfare regulation and social protection to the prevention of violent extremism; second, it enforces financial accountability and regulatory oversight to limit structural grievances and disrupt potential channels of radicalisation; and third, Nigeria maintains a predominantly securitised counter-terrorism regime that lacks enforceable economic rights and targeted development legislation. The study concludes that Nigeria should reform its legal framework by embedding inclusive economic governance, strengthening institutional accountability, and codifying socio-economic rights as integral components of a sustainable counter-terrorism strategy.

Abstract

In recent years, the advent of social media, mobile communication, and online news platforms has greatly changed the way public health information is produced, spread, and consumed. Besides this, the rise in Internet usage for health-related information has also made the public more susceptible to false or deceptive information, thereby giving rise to numerous problems, such as public health, trust in institutions, and the effectiveness of controlling diseases. The Ugandan government must implement digital solutions to combat public health misinformation because this task safeguards citizens' health rights and their right to receive accurate information, which helps maintain public safety. Consequently, the purpose of the study is to evaluate the state’s legal obligations to the extent that it can prevent, correct, and respond to misinformation on public health issues, as well as to examine the current legislative and regulatory framework governing digital governance and public health in light of this. Using a doctrinal research method based on the PRISMA framework, the study comprehensively studies both primary and secondary legal sources. The outcome indicates that, given the sophisticated nature of digital technology, the existing regulations are mainly reactive, dealing with punishment more often than prevention or correction of the misinformation. The study ends with the suggestion that the mechanism of regulatory enforcement should change from one that is mostly punitive to one that is preventive and corrective in nature. Among other things, it will mean requiring an active public health messaging, having real-time fact-checking systems, and having the official digital channels work together to correct misinformation.
